What does an ENERGY STAR score of 73 mean?
ENERGY STAR scores run from 1 to 100 and are computed by the EPA's Portfolio Manager as a percentile against similar buildings nationwide, adjusted for climate, size and use: a score of 73 means the building performs better than about 73% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 73 falls in band B — above median (70–84). It sits 2 points below 75, the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification. In California, 65% of scored buildings are at 75 or above.
Site energy-use intensity (EUI) is the energy a building uses on site in a year divided by its floor area, in thousand Btu per square foot — lower is more efficient. Autonation Toyota Cerritos's 40.7 kBtu/ft² across 86,635 sq ft works out to about 3.5 billion Btu (1,033 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. The disclosure also reports 954,629 kWh of electricity and 2,804 therms of natural gas for the year.
